When To Buy Microsoft Stock!

Value Investing with Sven Carlin, Ph.D.•Jul 3, 2026

Summary

Sven analyzes the financial implications of Microsoft's aggressive $200 billion investment in Artificial Intelligence. He highlights that from a cost accounting perspective, these expenses will lead to a $40 billion annual depreciation charge over the next five years, which will weigh heavily on the company's net profit. Since this expenditure represents 60% of current revenues, Sven emphasizes that the company must generate significant, sustainable profitable growth to justify these costs.

Microsoft (MSFT): Sven approaches the stock with a neutral to optimistic outlook, focusing on the trade-off between massive capital expenditure and future growth. He explains that the stock is currently priced to deliver a return of over 10% per year, provided the company effectively monetizes its AI investments. Investors are encouraged to review his full intrinsic value and risk-reward analysis to determine if the stock fits their specific portfolio strategy.
